Helpful Hounds Assistance Dogs have been chosen as Charity Partners by AFC Bournemouth

Helpful Hounds Assistance Dogs have been chosen as Charity Partners by AFC Bournemouth for both the 2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons. We are one of four Charity Partners that will receive support from the Cherries over the coming two seasons through player appearances, signed merchandise and club media support. Helpful Hounds were appointed as a result of a vote by Junior Cherries, for which we are very grateful.

Said Peter Rufus, CEO “This is wonderful News, and we are looking forward to developing this relationship with the Club to promote both parties over the next two seasons. We are also impressed by the amount of work that the Club does in the Community. 

We were told a couple of weeks ago that we would be a Charity Partner but were unable to say anything until now. It has been so difficult to keep quiet while everything was worked out.  This is a great recognition for our charity, staffed mainly by Volunteers where we are all working extremely hard to support our families, adults, and Schools. Having good news like this makes it very special”.

Helpful Hounds Assistance Dogs is a mental health charity that helps change lives, using the training of Assistance Dogs, for those dealing with autism, Down’s syndrome, acute anxiety, or other mental impairments as well as physical disablements.

They provide support for:

    1.  Young people, families and adults
    2.  Schools and colleges dealing with special needs students
    3.  Alternative Provision Education at the request of local authorities/education authorities

Bournemouth Chamber Welcomes A New Patron

A digital marketing company has become the latest patron of Bournemouth Chamber of Trade and Commerce.

Digitize, a relatively new business set up by two experienced marketeers, will also be helping promote the chamber. Founders Martyn Houldsworth and Matt Maclean have worked locally in various businesses and came together to fill a gap in the market.

Digitize builds websites, undertakes re-branding, conducts ‘competitor research’ and uses the latest social media platforms for marketing. It has a growing client base of SMEs in the Bournemouth and wider region and prides itself on explaining things in easily-understandable language

Martyn said: “From launching in 2021 we have grown quickly which has shown us that our offering is desirable.

“Joining Bournemouth Chamber of Commerce was a natural progression as our business grows – and being a patron provides even more benefits.

“Already we have made some great contacts and have agreed to help promote the chamber and assist with its website.

“Bournemouth is a great place for businesses for a number of reasons, but particularly because of its seaside location, supply of university graduates and the variety of sectors represented. We’d like more members to join and help build a stronger network.”

Bill Perkins, president of the chamber, said: “Digitize brings new energy to the chamber as well as skills in high demand.

“I’d love to welcome other businesses to the chamber. The chamber was founded more than a century ago and we have a variety of members, from sole proprietorships and locally owned independent businesses to major institutions and organisations.

“We organise networking opportunities and business breakfasts, offer business support, information, training and development, and there are numerous other benefits of being a member.”
